OverviewAI-generated
The vulva is a sex organ that functions as part of the female human reproductive system and the urinary system. It is anatomically distinct from the human vagina. The structure follows the development of the genital tubercle and labioscrotal swelling.
Major components of the vulva include the mons pubis, clitoris, labia, and pudendal cleft. Blood supply is provided by the internal pudendal artery, with venous drainage occurring through the internal pudendal veins. Sensory innervation is supplied by the pudendal nerve.
In academic literature, the term "Vulva" appears in 17,965 PubMed records. The subject is referenced by 945 other encyclopedia articles.
